My Story

My journey through midlife has been a rollercoaster of challenges, breakthroughs, and self-discovery. Menopause swept me into a whirlwind of fiery hot flashes, weight changes, brain fog, and even a few humorous moments in between. But it wasn’t just about symptoms. It became a powerful turning point that invited me to look inward, reconnect with my values, and embrace this next chapter with authenticity and resilience.
Cycling, family time, laughter-filled catchups with friends, and tending to my vegetable garden keep me grounded and inspired. These personal passions fuel my commitment to supporting women in midlife, reminding me daily of the importance of balance, joy, and connection.
